Boosting Youth Access to Federal Lands and Improving Recreation Data.

This law aims to increase opportunities for youth, especially those underserved, to visit and recreate on federal lands like national parks and forests. It mandates the creation of a national strategy to boost these visits and requires better public notification regarding trail and campsite closures. Citizens will also benefit from increased transparency regarding federal spending on outdoor recreation programs.
Key points
A national strategy must be developed to increase youth recreation visits to federal lands, focusing specifically on underserved communities.
Federal agencies must provide timely, easily searchable online alerts about closures or disruptions to public trails, roads, and campsites.
Increased financial transparency requires annual public reporting of all federal funds spent on outdoor recreation by the Departments of Interior and Agriculture.
